I got out of this today without recording the information pulmonologist must include on prescriptions for costs to be covered. Could someone please repeat that. I have always wondered why Nebulizer, Netti Pot, HydroSal etc weren’t covered.
Thanks so much!

@totty I was curious about that about that as well. I asked my pharmacist and was told that the doctor must have the correct "diagnostic code" on the prescription in order for insurance to cover my 7% saline. I did a google search and it appears that J479 is the code for bronchiectasis. You might ask your doctor about that and hope that he/she is familiar with it. I will be asking my Pulmo in December at my next appointment. Bill
